Hoosierfan Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Sorry, kids, just need to vent. My NSAID-induced gastritis has been going on 2 1/2 weeks and is still causing me to vomit daily, nausea all the time, and eating anything is a chore. I started prilosec 2 x day 10 days ago, helped a little but not much. Stopped the NSAIDs a week ago and saw some improvement, but I'm still yacking. For those with tummy issues, is this typical? I've read on-line that gastritis can take awhile to heal, but yeeesh, at this rate I'll be down to my high school weight in no time! I'm not doing much but laying around in bed because my tummy feels so yucky, I have no energy, oh, and my body is still adjusting to the Klonopin w/d. Have a call into the doc to see if there is anything else I can do besides the prilosec, the low-acid diet (I am SICK of bananas and potatoes!!!!), and the papaya smoothies (thanks, girls) that seem to help a little but are not kicking this thing.

Hoosierfan Posted March 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Oh, and I should have said that it's really hard to get in the salt I need when my thermo-tabs seem to be bothering my tummy, and most salt-foods are on the "no no" for gastritis list.

MandyBrook Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 I am praying for you!!! I seem to be going through the same stuff as you however, my nausea isn't as bad as the day progresses. I am going to attempt to switch taking my lexapro from at night to in the morning. I've been up since 2a.m, that's when the nausea started today yuck!!! Praying for a better tomorrow for the both of us!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
